San Jose 5, Buffalo 0

‘San Jose (9-12-4), the last place-team in the Pacific Division, scored four goals in the first 11 1/2 minutes, including three in a 2-minute span to chase goalie Mika Noronen. Noronen made his first start since injuring his groin in a shootout loss to the New York Rangers on Nov. 22, and appeared to be hampered while stopping only seven of 11 shots.’
